Deke Dickerson to Perform at the Fullerton Market

Fullerton, Ca – The sounds of rockabilly will be heard in downtown Fullerton Thursday, April 16, when the “Deke Dickerson and the Eccofonics” performs at the outdoor Fullerton Market.

The popular market, now in its 24th year of operation, is open from 4-8:30 p.m., and offers farm-fresh produce, flowers, fresh-baked breads, arts and crafts, food vendors, and live entertainment.

The market also features a beer and wine garden for adults and a Kids’ Korner, which offers special activities to keep children happy while their parents shop.

During warm weather, the Plaza’s pop jet fountain provides a great cooling-off spot for youngsters who are welcome to wear their swim suits.

Dickerson is regarded as one of the most versatile guitarists around, and his repertoire mixes diverse musical genres, including country, rock and roll, doo-wop, and blues with his trademark rockabilly.

Dickerson will perform from 6:30-8:30 p.m.
